I used an HP 16700A, which you can see in the video I linked some time back:

Wow. Very nicely done! Which logic analyzer did you use to capture those

Subject: Re: DEC KA650 VAX memory troubleshooting
Well, I finally got around to posting this on the CHWiki, in case
anybody was curious about this.

OK, so where should a thing like this go: https://pastebin.com/taQwaTV6
Anybody got a decent place to upload that? it's my notes on the
MS650-AA, and more generally the KA650 CMCTL memory subsystem.
Includes my theory of operation of the CMCTL, the organization of
memory, the ECC equations (kinda, the info is there to derive them),
explanations of the signals on the memory bus, and most importantly, a
list of which bits and RAM regions correspond to the 312 DRAMs on the board.

documented what bit and memory range each DRAM on the card corresponds
to, which may help someone troubleshooting in the future
